Smaller lenders look to offer 100% ltv and low deposit mortgages

Northern Bank, which only lends to Northern Ireland residents, offers a number of mortgages up to 100% loan-to-value to existing current account customers.

Two other lenders say that they will lend up to 100% of the property value, including the Teachers Building Society and the Tipton & Coseley Building Society. Qualifying for both mortgages will be particularly tricky because they are not widely available.

To get a 100% loan-to-value mortgage with the Teachers Building Society you would need to secure 20% funding from the government Home Buy scheme and one applicant on the mortgage would need to be a qualified Teacher or Learning Assistant.

The Tipton's 100% offering will require a family member to give permission for a collateral charge to be taken on their home and the property must be in the Midlands counties.

There are more lenders offering 95% loan-to-value mortgages and many of them are available through regional building societies. The Cambridge Building Society is the latest society to offer 95% loan-to-value rates.

Trinity Financial has access to the Skipton Building Society two-year fixed rate for borrowers with a 5% deposit and the arrangement fee is £195.
